Our speaker lineup is not to be missed (more on them shortly) but first, keep reading to learn why this year’s conference is a must-attend.
Why attend: Now more than ever, business leaders must be confident that their teams can increase ROI and produce results from anywhere. At the same time, HR leaders are being called to improve and maintain a company culture and employee experience like never before in this new hybrid work environment.
This EmpowerHR virtual conference will help you empower your employees and your organization to close the loop between people, strategy, and results. HR leaders who attend EmpowerHR also have the opportunity to earn 6 SHRM CE credits!
Our theme this year is: Lead from anywhere, succeed everywhere. And that’s just what we want to empower you to do. You will hear from industry leaders and peers, as well as Betterworks thought leaders, to give you actionable insights on how to help your organization lead and succeed at every level.
Who should attend: Business and HR leaders – this conference is for you! This is also a great opportunity to network with several of the Betterworks key industry partners, and customers. Current members of our Slack Community, In the Loop (also free to join if you haven’t already registered), will find this conference packed with the same valuable thought-leadership and insights brought to you by the community.
